Grip. Control. Dominate. The CSL Steering Wheel GT3 throws you into the driver’s seat with its realistic size, trusted performance, and proven layout.
Refined design.
The authentic GT3 experience starts here. The CSL Steering Wheel GT3 offers premium features such as an OLED display, rocker switches, and encoders, setting the standard for affordability without compromise.
Designed for Xbox®.
Attach this wheel to any compatible FANATEC® base and the whole system (including attached peripherals such as shifters, pedals, or handbrake) will work on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One®.
Realistic magnetic shifters, multi-purpose paddle system.
Use the dual-clutch paddle system as the ultimate weapon to nail every race start. The advanced bite-point mode allows you to determine the optimal bite-point before the start of the race and initiate the perfect launch every time.
Never miss a shift.
The magnetic shifter mechanism is custom designed for superior tactile response. Its rocker-style paddle, precision-cut from a single block of anodized aluminum, allows intuitive one-handed up and down-shifting.
Multi-functional analog paddles.
Clutch bite-point mode, handbrake mode, brake/throttle mode, and mappable axis mode - all instantly available with a flick of the center switch. Brake/throttle mode allows driving without pedals.
Racing ergonomics enhanced.
Toggle and rotary switches, laser-engraved Pit and Neutral buttons with high bezels and snap-dome switches with realistic resistance, FunkySwitch (seven functions) and seven additional buttons with exchangeable button caps. Every input is intelligently placed so you can adapt quickly and concentrate on the race.
Multi-Position Switches with rotary encoder functionality.
The 12-way switches allow for advanced multi-position modes and endless rotary encoder functionality for wider compatibility between racing sims.
QR2 preinstalled.
The motorsport-derived QR2 system is optimized for a secure and fast attachment/detachment of steering wheels, with the tapered shape naturally ensuring a tight fit.
FANATEC® DIRECT-DRIVE TECHNOLOGY.
When the steering wheel is directly mounted to the motor shaft, there’s no belt or gear drive to dilute the force feedback effects. Choose Direct Drive by Fanatec and experience your favourite racing simulations as the developers intended.
PLUG AND PLAY.
Our strong relationship with game developers means the CSL DD has broad compatibility and consistent behaviour across many popular titles. The Standard Tuning Menu has been simplified, allowing beginners to start quickly without having to worry about settings. The Advanced Tuning Menu remains for enthusiasts.
TORQUE TO THE HANDS.
The 100% custom motor was developed in Germany specifically for sim racing. It delivers sensational performance thanks to patented FluxBarrier technology, communicating the nuances of force feedback detail to your hands with remarkable clarity.
EFFICIENT AND RESPONSIVE.
The efficiency of the CSL DD motor technology means dynamic force-feedback performance is contained in a small footprint. This is also the first industrial motor to feature a carbon fibre composite motor shaft, which increases responsiveness and acceleration significantly due to low rotational masses.
8 NM OF TORQUE.
Standard peak torque is 5 Nm, with the Boost Kit 180 (included) unlocking the full 8 Nm. This high level of torque can be sustained without the need for active cooling, with the extruded and CNC-machined aluminium casing acting as the structural chassis as well as the heatsink.
Heavy steel construction.
The stability of the all-metal design means it is built to last. The stiffer spring on the brake pedal combined with the PU foam damper provides a realistic, progressive feeling.
Magnetic sensors.
Both the throttle and brake axes use precision Hall-effect sensors. By measuring pedal position with magnets, the system is contactless, meaning no wear on the sensor and consistent performance.
Three ways to upgrade.
Upgrade your CSL Pedals with metal pedal faces (optional), the Clutch Kit (optional), or the Load Cell Kit (all kits sold separately). The Clutch Kit provides a third pedal at the lowest possible price. The Load Cell Kit is an alternative to the Clutch Kit, also providing a third pedal, while upgrading the brake and main electronics.
Clutch Kit or Load Cell Kit.
The CSL Pedals Clutch Kit (sold separately) adds a dedicated clutch pedal, with a stiffer spring than the throttle and the same wider pedal face as the brake. The CSL Pedals Load Cell Kit (sold separately) is the ultimate upgrade for realistic braking feel. When upgrading to the Load Cell Kit, the standard brake pedal can be used as the clutch.
Metal pedal faces.
Transform the appearance of the CSL Pedals with durable, anodised aluminium pedal faces (sold separately). The throttle pedal face is extended, allowing for a comfortable heel-and-toe technique.
Special Notes:
This wheel allows High Torque Mode on ClubSport DD / DD+ and Podium DD1 / DD2 bases with the preinstalled QR2 Lite Wheel-Side.
While most button inputs (including paddle shifters) are generally compatible across all games and platforms, certain advanced features may be unavailable, as their functionality relies on game developers integrating support for the Fanatec SDK.
It is possible to install a QR1 Wheel-Side for use on Direct Drive Bases with QR1. However, it is recommended to upgrade your QR1 Direct Drive Base to QR2 for better performance with this wheel. Visit this page for more information about QR2.
